Forming Up

I'm writing a poem about the NPR program ' Nashville 2.0 ' on         ' Americana ' music.

Sing America , blend right in
Song of the home we all knew
The place of our start , our heart

Way ahead of me to the gap
Years before , building proud
Names , reach out to everyone

Standing there , cheering loud
Smoke filled the rooms like
Velour on the walls

A country place , still , but wider yet
A gathering of tunesmiths and songsters all 




This was written on a scrap of paper during the show itself.

It will need polishing and , well lots
You get to see it first
